[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm not saying they are about networking. They are an example of the settings in which networking connections get made---who meets, socializes, and remains in contact with whom. It all doesn't magically start at Yale.[/quote] We are a private school family, but this article is NOT what makes it worth it for us. The only “connections” happening on the trips in this NYT piece are the ones that lead to an STD or stint in rehab. I think the benefit of private is smaller classes, more engaged teachers, better facilities, and consistently smart peers. Most schools just don’t provide these things where I live, and I have a child who rises academically to the level of those around him. [/quote]
